Opossums
Safe Solutions for Unwanted Guests
Hear scratching in the walls or attic? See droppings in the garage?
We get a lot of calls that start with the same concern: “Something’s in my house, and I don’t know what it is.” That’s exactly where we come in.
Our wildlife removal services are built to handle known problems—like raccoons, squirrels, or groundhogs—and the mystery ones, too. If you're hearing noises, spotting damage, or seeing signs of animal activity, we’ll figure out what’s going on and take care of it—safely and thoroughly.
We don’t stop at trapping. Our team removes animals, their nesting materials, and anything they’ve left behind. We also offer professional exclusions and repairs to block re-entry and keep your home protected long after we’re gone.
When animals make their way in, our job is to remove them safely—and make sure they don’t come back. We provide wildlife control and animal removal services that are trusted across the region.
Safe, Humane Removal for Unexpected Visitors
Opossums don’t break in—they sneak in
Unlike more aggressive wildlife, opossums don’t dig or tear through structures. They typically take advantage of already-existing access points, making their way into crawlspaces, garages, wall voids, or under porches and sheds. Once inside, they leave behind waste and nesting debris and may spread fleas or mites.
Our opossum removal services focus on humane trapping and identifying how and why the animal got inside. After removal, we’ll walk you through any cleanup or exclusion work needed to prevent it from happening again.
We provide opossum control that addresses the root of the issue and helps keep your property secure.
How to Tell If an Opossum Has Moved In
What we find in low, quiet, and undisturbed spaces
Because opossums tend to move in quietly, they’re often mistaken for other animals—or missed entirely. Homeowners may hear slow, heavy movement at night or find droppings, insulation mess, or fur in garages, sheds, or crawlspaces. In some cases, the first sign is a pet reacting to something behind or beneath a structure.
If you’ve noticed signs of activity but aren’t sure what you’re dealing with, we’ll inspect the property and confirm what’s going on. We’ve handled opossum removal all across Ohio, and we know how to spot the patterns—so you don’t have to guess.
